You left your jacket in the back seat, that's why I'm calling you now

I found it curled up in a ball, I was cleaning the 'Yota out

Swing by the house anytime you want or I can drop it off

You know whiskey makes me honest, tequila makes you mean

Last thing I remember, you were cussing, my keys were in the weeds

You threw 'em out, said I'd love to see you leave

But I won't let you go kill yourself or get busted by the popo

So I staggered home alone still thinking about you

I'm through talking about all the things we can't change

It's hard moving on, I don't want you gone

Ain't it strange the way we keep trying to tie down this thing

With these loose strings?

Baby, if we weren't so hard-headed maybe we wouldn't fight

And if you weren't so damn pretty, I might have slept last night

You say you can't live with me, ah, but you can't live without

It's the little things I think about

When I stagger home alone still thinking about you

I'm through talking about all the things we can't change

It's hard moving on, I don't want you gone

But ain't it strange the we keep trying to tie down this thing

With these loose strings?

Ain't no what it's gonna be, babe

What you get is what you see, babe

We can try and lock it down, it might hold for now

That ain't you and me

We keep tying ourselves down

With these loose strings

Every time I turn around

Loose strings

The two of us just tangled up in

Loose strings

Every time I think I love you

Loose strings

Loose strings

Loose strings

Loose strings
